This movie at least really doesn't play around with the gay stereotypes too much. I have seen some films that have went over the top with the stereotyping i.e. "Kiss Me, Guido". I know how the mannerisms are inside the Gay/Lesbian culture, but still a film can be funny and not go over the top.
"All Over The Guy" does just this and gives you a healthy dose of laughter. This film reminds me of the movie, "The Opposite of Sex". I give "All Over The Guy" two thumbs up for showing gays in a positive light. I recommend both movies to anyone gay or straight.

Great movie for the expanding Gay/Lesbian genre of movies
Too much pensées
I have seen what has been written before (that terrible review...), and I feel the need to say that All Over the Guy is not a terrible movie. It's actually very sweet and gentle in portraying two gay characters with issues. Not that it's a wonderful film but I didn't find it disturbing, and I found it somehow pleasant to watch; of course it's a bit to light-headed sometimes but there's nothing bad about it. And yes, I think it is witty sometimes (and mind you, I read the English authors, I have a doctorate in English literature!!!) For those who wish to watch something better Id recommend: Suddenly, last summer; Paragraph 175; Oranges are not the only fruit. GREAT SOUNDTRACK: ESPECIALLY David GRAY'S _PLEASE FORGIVE ME_.
What some people think is good and funny... I'll never get it.
When I read the first page of reviews I have to come to the conclusion that I have a terrible sense of humor or maybe it's just all the others that don't need much to giggle. All Over The Guy is supposed to be a comedy, a romcom, but there is actually almost nothing funny about this movie. The only funny parts is where Andrea Martin and Tony Abatemarco appear, but unfortunately they only had like two minutes of screen time. The whole story is so boring, it's just a repetitive nonsense about two gays that can't decide if they love eachother or not. I have nothing against gays, on the contrary, but watching that kind of boring and stupid nine year old behavior from two grown up men is just anything but funny. Did I hate this movie? Yes I did, no doubt about that.
